Cobra Tattoo Photo #9053

The cobra's hood display is a warning signal-a cobra tattoo can mean you're ready to defend yourself or those you protect. In some traditions, cobras guard temples and treasures.

Originating from centuries-old cultural practices, tribal designs carry symbolic weight through their patterns and placement. Modern tribal tattoos adapt these traditional motifs into contemporary compositions that honor the style's heritage.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
